Yeah, I agree. I almost always put my phone on speaker when I'm home alone, but, why would I want to but the rest of the world to hear my business?

Not often (or ever) that I get to say this in a TOC, but final was an instaget. I got the missed clue of cornflower. Not too bad of a night. Not a good night, but again, for a TOC, not bad at all.

Because she hadn't seen them before which meant at least something happened.

I"m OK with the retcon as I've always viewed this as a separate show. However, I'm calling it a retcon. I, in no way, shape or form, believe BBT Sheldon is stupid enough to not know his own mother's voice, even with a fake accent. Plus, as others have mentioned, the action figure, etc. Although, within this show, I find it hard to believe that Sheldon wouldn't confront George over cheating on his mother. He had to spend a night at Tam's to get away from the secret when he didn't even know what the secret was. Even adult Sheldon is terrible at keeping secrets.

Well, I would hope that the professionals that came to take away her body would have noticed such a thing.

I said The Spartans. I got the missed clues of Cezanne and Audobon. I got the entire category of old paints right, which is weird because I'm not that much of an art buff.

I said 1876. It was logical. Guess I didn't get any missed clues and I sure as heck didn't run any categories. I did at least get one right in each one, so small victory.

I said Thorium. At least it wasn't completely stupid. I got the missed clues of luxury, prostrating and mourning. Sounds like a really weird indy movie. Not a good night.

Cool. What were the odds of that:)

I said Ovid because he's literally the only ancient Roman poet I can name. I got the missed clues of 12, prohibitionist and (believe it or not) pulchritudinous. Probably didn't spell it right, but spelling doesn't count. Not too bad for tournament play tonight. Did not want the celeb to win. Hopefully he won't win the whole thing.

Me, too. The reason there are so many repeat offenders is because there are barely any consequences until you kill someone. An automatic month in prison, $5,000 fine and loss of license for a year on the first offense, would probably give a lot of people pause to even try to decide if they're sober enough to drive before just calling a cab or whatever.

Swans and geese are aggressive. You don't mess around with them.

Even if the train didn't leave, someone could have just swiped it.

i said Iceland. It made no sense but what do you want from me. it was a looong week at work. I got the missed clues of Nicaragua, Scone, and shero.

Oh, yeah, absolutely. I'm just saying that even if his Flower slip up hadn't given him away, that probably would have.

I don't care if they don't follow BBT canon, but in BBT canon it's not possible that Sheldon just mistook his mother for someone else because of a wig or whataever. Because the woman he walks in on with George bought him an action figure to try to win him over. I don't think a wig would fool him that long.

I agree with Nigel. You don't get married planning for divorce. All else aside, I think "where are the ghosts?" would have been a ridiculous thing to say right after falling down the stairs. Sure, they probably would have all run in, but someone's absence probably isn't the first thing you think of after falling down the stairs.

What kind of a moron leaves his bag on a train, or a bus, if he's getting off. Even for a minute. I got chased by a miniature collie once. we later became friends. Because he lied to his mother. Also, what time did Sheldon call Missy? Since there was a 2 or 3 hour lapse before he got home, it doesn't seem like it could have been very late, or Mary would have been worried before the phone call. It woul dhave been 7 hours earlier in TX, and no teenagers I knew at that time would be up at 9 in the morning if they didn't have to be. And she clearly didn't have to be. I assume he's doing it on weekends. Missy was home to answer the phone, in what would have been morning, or I guess possibly middle of night.

All that star made me think of was satellites, and that didn't have anything to do with travel, but then I was up in the air, so I said the Cocorde because I was out of time. No TSs and no run cataegories for me, but on the bright side, also no completely wrong categories.

I said secretary of state. Mostly because I couldn't think of anything else that alliterated. Not because I thought either of them were secretary of state or that that is a job you would get with a coin toss. I got the missed clue of Kazakhstan. I got the entire category of histor"e" right and the entire category of actors wrong.

Chiron was the only one I missed in mythology. Not sure if she was spelling it that way, but loved the answer of Mentaur.

I had no idea on FJ. I got the missing clues of New Mexico, pleat, and Red Chief. I got the entire category of awards wrong. Which makes sense. because I'm clearly not winning any.

I said woolleen, and then rolled my eyes when fleece was revealed. Also, although I obviously totally knew it, I blanked on Fauci. That was just embarrassing.

I said Botticelli. No reason. Just guessing an Italian artist. I got the missed clues of Shakespeare & Company, and magnesium and aluminum. Before Chris missed them with partially right info. I got the entire categories of the New Testament and parts of speech right. Much better game than Friday, but i still lost money.

I know. It's stupid. Not only is his family semi-famous, but he's been a cop in that city for a long time. He could run into someone he's arrested before. It's why I don't like Jamie undercover stories. Nothing will beat the one where he was undercover at night and walking a beata during the day as far as ultimate stupidity goes, but in reality, if Jamie wanted to get into undercover work, he'd have to do it in Florida, or something. Should have read your post first. I could have saved myself a rant. But, then again, where's the fun in that?
